The dot is extremely weak when attached to ddl's driver with the pot on zero resistance. How could I increase power? If anyone has experience with these diodes please post information. Thanks

And did you solder the capacitor onto the diode or is it on the driver itself, because if you had it not connected to the laser diode and turned it on the capacitor would of charged up and when you connected it to the laser diode it will kill it. ...lazer... ;D ;D ;D
